Soon, more family members will be coming over to spend their time with us...

So far, the only planned activity is a trip for an overnight stay at Westin, Seattle for a great price of $159/night for 2 rooms... Mom and Ken as well as Kenny and Alanna will be joining us.

I can't book trips right away because my mom and brother will be arriving on May 1st and I don't want to keep my hopes up befote they really are here before I get too excited. It is still a month to go and plans may change...My brother in law amd his wife will be arriving on the 7th from an earlier trip in US of A.

I do have some that are planned on top of my head:

* Victoria probably wo Kelvin and Kenzo
* Whistler day tour or if I find a hotel with a good price, an overnight is even better
* Downtown by skytrain and seabus then Canada Line route to visit the Airport and other new stops
... Still thinking since I plan to tour them to nearby places furst before going farther...

I'd love feedbacks on great places to go that won't require me to break the piggy bank :)

We do co-sleeping by choice. We love having their small bodies close to us and time really is short and we want to cherish every bit of it even the sleeping moment. Whatever it is, co-sleeping means one thing- no movement :-p tight spaces, especially when your toddler wants to co-sleep with 4 of her stuff toys as well.

Having kids makes me want to be a better person and makes me really scared of every little things that I do which might affect their persona...I know that I will be probably more protective of Kimi just for the fact that she is a girl... I know there is no formula to raising kids but this one does comes close to what I hope to achieve in raising my Kimi.

I came across this entry reading a blog from one of my good friend, G. Posted it here to share it to everyone.

Thanks G

The relationship between mothers and their daughters is an incredibly strong one. Moms raising girls have the power to shape the next generation of women and those to come by teaching their kids important lessons.

1. That confidence and independence are beautiful.
2. That size doesn't matter, but wasting her time worrying about it does.
3. That brilliance should never be downplayed.
4. That emotions are liberating so she should go ahead and laugh, cry or scream.
5. To always have enough i
money to pay her own way, but to be gracious when someone else treats. And to be generous with what she has.
6. To not make age an excuse for her actions.
7. That "mean girls" are really just insecure.
8. That she has an amazing power to make a difference in life.
9. To actively pursue her dreams especially those that seem unattainable.
10. That the love she will give and receive is limitless.

My Life...

A little something about this blog...

I started this blog 2003 when blogging was new to everyone and it was just curiosity that got me started. Then life became busy and blogging became scarce.I got to blogging regularly again when I came to Canada and when I became a mom. I wanted to document Kimi`s (...and now, Kenzo`s) milestone and hope that someday that they can read the entries here. I also went to Canada to start our family here and blogging has been my way of letting my family and friends from back home (Philippines) ...and in here, get updated on what is happening with me. It is my way of getting in touch and letting them into our lives.
